Is it Right, or Wrong

Faithfulness to one's highest light is a necessary condition of growth.

No matter how commonplace may seem the situation, or how trivial the occasion, there is a right and perfect way of meeting it, and loyalty to this right way is a far more potent factor in one's development than is indicated by the apparent results.

We are too prone to justify ourselves with "Oh well, it's a very small thing, and it makes little difference which way I go, I'm only one," when really the question of right or wrong is involved. True I am only one, and my being right or wrong may seem to make no difference to the great on-sweeping current of a popular error, but it does make a great difference to me whether I'm right or wrong, be it ever so little, and it does influence others far more than we usually admit.
